Coco's slam
By Amalie Benjamin, Globe Staff
That was the second career Grand Slam for Coco Crisp, whose thumb is looking much better after he sent that pitch from J.P. Howell over the Green Monster. His other came on July 27, 2004, against Detroit.
On the Grand Slam, Manny Ramirez, Mike Lowell, and Jason Varitek all scored. Howell has allowed four hits and one walk, while getting only two outs thus far (one on a fielder's choice, one on a strikeout). Julio Lugo is the ninth batter to come to the plate.
It's 6-0, Sox.
